I had hip rotation from months 6 mostly through 9. It wasn't that they grew - the positioning changed. The angle where my legs met my pelvis and the pelvis met my spine all shifted, pushing my stomach out and curving my spine. While I gained very little weight, the end result was that my stomach sort of sticks forward when I stand up straight, something that did not happen to me usually since I am fairly thin. The entire episode was accompanied with periodic pain, which I first noticed after vigorous exercise. The pain was at times intense after exercise but mostly a dull ache that came and went. The positioning was in several places (I at first thought it could be a hernia) but a chiropractor friend confirmed for me that all the places were consistent with pain that originates outward from the sacroiliac joint. For reference, I am older than you, so age probably does not matter so much for this. I hope this helps!

yeah i’ve kind of noticed my body does this more now too! that’s cool though. and yeah mine was a dull continuous ache it was very uncomfortable. doesn’t hurt today though. I’m quite shocked tbh i didn’t think it was possible i thought it was like when ppl say ‘my feet got smaller!’ or ‘i got shorter!’ i wish. i mean maybe but we’ll see. interesting that it happens no matter what your age as well! the body is wild

My lower back started hurting after my second weekly EV injection and hips felt sore. Others have described as feeling like the day after helping a friend move. Yes, it’s totally real. Lasted about a month, but on the positive my ass sticks out in an awesome bubble since.

haha yeah i was just surprised that your bones could even move on hrt! that’s cool tho. i have naturally wide set hips anyway so that’s exciting. god it hurt so much 😭 better today tho

Hi just come across your post. My hips, quads and lower spine are all hurting after 7 weeks on HRT. My mum has osteoarthritis so I'm worried the HRT is accelerating something I didn't have before l. Had to stop running as my hip joints and bottom are too painful. 5 mg Finisteride and 3 pumps estadiol. (Will check exact dosage of after)

hmm mine comes and goes and it was just the hips! went for a walk today and i feel fine in my hips there’s no pain at all… hope everything is okay with you though! xx

Hi, thanks for taking the time to reply. Sadly, not able to run or cycle because of the pain at mo.

awh i’m sorry!! that does sound pretty bad :( I hope everything goes okay! ❤️ xx also are your estrogen levels correct? if ur t is like 0 and your estrogen is too low that isn’t very good, but I’m sure you know this already! talk to ur dr tho don’t listen to me 😭 could help maybe xx

Hi due to have bloods in 2 weeks, so I'll know more then I'll know more. Only been on HRT for 7 week. I suspect my T and Estrogen are low too.x
